Earlier this week HoneyB, from The Life and Loves of Grumpy’s Honeybunch, presented me with my first blog award! Now it has fallen upon me to pass the torch along to some of my favorite food bloggers.
use real butter – This colorful blog showcases gorgeous step-by-step photos that always entice me to make the featured recipes. Jen has perfected the highly sought-after art of making cooking appear effortless and displays her talent in each entry.
Food Beam – “Lovin’ the beam” was the subject of the first e-mail I sent to Fanny of Foodbeam. This classy and fun chronicle on French cuisine offers a fresh perspective on classic dishes with the perfect, sassy food commentary on the side!

The avocado milkshakes featured in the video are a breeze to make at home and always bring intrigue into the kitchen. Also, the recipe I’ve included is extremely flexible and you can pretty much adjust the quantity of any of the ingredients to fit your tastes.

That actually looks incredibly refreshing. I had a Filipino friend that used to make similar desserts with avocado and it was yum….I recently had an avocado mousse at an Indian restaurant that was worth trying to make.
Congrats on your E-Award….I got the same one passed to me from one of honeyB’s recipients…great recipes you got!
Hee! I loved the vid…so fun! I don’t think you’re crazy for making avocado milkshakes, either…here we make them with strawberries added too. 🙂
Antonio, fund video and it makes for a great connect to your readers.
What a great video, and an interesting milkshake. I love avocados and not too long ago tried an avocado spinach soup another blogger featured. It was sooooo good! I’ll let you know when I give this a shot. It make take some convincing…
So here I am, drinking my avocado milkshake a la Tahhan.
I wasn’t too sure what I was getting myself into at first, but I really really like it!
That’s 4 of your recipes down… I don’t know exactly how many more to go… but I’m enjoying the ride! Thanks for sharing.
